New Photos on Flickr

Please check out the latest of the pbrownie photo stream.

There are lots of photos of making lemon shooters.. mini lemon meringue pies on top of mini phylo cups and the fun we had putting on beards and acting foolish for the camera on Christmas day.

The Christmas party was great. We missed a major person in it. Kelly had enough of pressures.. who could blame her and opted out. Renovating any part of your house is enough to make you want to sit down and cry. Let alone a phd study and a bi bay lifestyle.

I made two lasagnas. One of them used portabella mushrooms. That was a first for me. Also I made up a meat lasagna that was more like chili mac without the chili. Booth of them were successful and we had plenty of leftovers.

I also tried my had at making crustini with pesto. The pesto was really good.. made with fresh basil and olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and pine nuts. Just a little goes a long way.

Mom made a ham. It was great although there were not many ham eaters in this "going" vegetarian oriented crowd. She was glad there weren't any turkey leftovers.

Linzi and Sean invited a Christmas "orphan" from Oakland to join us. He is a ginger. See her blog for an explanation.

We all tried on funny Santa beard masks for the Christmas shot. It was a lot of fun. I added some strictly casual shots for my flickr stream that you may enjoy. A more formal shot may be referrenced in Cammie's flickr stream.

Hope you had a great one.. One thing can be said today.. it is over.

Love
Pat
